Entry knowledge

Building-physical relation of water transfer in building contruction, building construction theory, mechanical endurance and stability of building construction, drawing building construction by valid rules.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course

Extent and forms are specified by guarantor’s regulation updated for every academic year.

Aims

Humidity efect on building construction behaviour, causes of rising damp, measure of building construction humidity, building-moisture survey processing, aplication of adittional reduce humidity methods, analysis of action biotic factor on building constructions, desing and realization measure against radon infiltraion into the reconstruction objects.
Student will be able to elaborate a project documentation for design sanitation of the building including constuctively-hygric exploration and biotic exploration. Student is also able to accomplish proposal method for sanitation of the building in relation to realized facts.
